Why did you spec into tanks after seeing all of the previous generation of tankers tell you how broken they were?

Now that I've stopped using shield boosters its a lot easier. More pg means I can do more damage and fit more shields.

The old tanks were OP as hell, and the old tankers were used to that.

I'm still seeing some HAVs lasting the entire battle by actual skill rather than playing the redline.

Last time i checked my tank is not that broken. could use a buff here and there but its all fine

most likely a railgun tank i suppose? armor too

You've traded a booster for another heavy shield? But... why? You're a mad man.

so have i. u know when theres no enemy AV. any AV at all then they die.

I've seen several HAVs today survive with AV after them. They barely survived a few run-ins, but they still survived. But the AV was usually only the joint effort of an AV grenadier and either a swarm launcher or a forge gun.

Last time I checked Tanks can still dish out the hurt but from a supportive role.

Played a match last night were a Madrugar pilot went 32/1 and was tanking AV fire throughout the match (anecdotal evidence sucks I know).

To be fair Im a pretty skilled AV trooper on my 7m SP alt but even I cant go head to head with tanks solo. Don't understand what you are complaining about O'dell since tanks still are a terror on the battlefield.

The real problem now is the active modules wheel, 1 time on 4 my repairer doesn't work and at least 1 time every game it pass from online to cool down without activating his power.
Tank vs Tank is better than before.
Infantry still have powerful weapons compared to our defenses.

I wonder if CCP intends to give us proto and adv HAVS...then we'd be fine but until then we're trying to use std defenses against proto AV.

Why wouldn't you spec into tanks? As you say, they're broken as ****. Kill people in 1 shot and never die.

Hit me up tonight. I'll let you drive a 1.5 mil isk tank and if you don't die you get to be right. Oh, and it'll be a Maddy with a blaster, too. Good luck getting more than 5 kills. Seriously. Hmu. I'll give you my tank. I'll give you three.

I love my tank. I held the bridge on that dom map from some imps with just my tank and 2 inf guys. That was a good game, we all have bad ones though and it hurts us more because of the isk .

What I have been doing is spider webbing with maple, I run my char with 2 light aezotrpic shield boosters cycling them. When one finishes I activate the other rinse and repeat. And since my char can tank some serious AV I am able to keep maple in the fight longer.

Just have to have a tanking buddy. Running in two's is much more fun and spreads the av.

I don't want tanks to be changed, because when ccp brings in more advanced levels of tanks everything's going to be aok. And by that I mean ill have another 79-1 game with my sagaris, be warned.

congrats to them. but if my LLAV has more overall EHP from resist and higher speed and stronger weapon tht OHKs everyone there is no point of HAVs. Cause they r Weak.

only a hand full of us remains

That's because LAVs got an unnecessary buff
